To Colleen and Family,

I am so very sorry to hear of the passing of your Mom. She was a wonderful women and everytime I saw her she would have a big smile or her face and always went out of her way to say Hi. My heart goes out to you and your family. Losing a loved one is hard enough but, in the loss of a Mother it will be a void in your heart you will never be able to fill again. May God bless you and your family in this most difficult time. Know that you now have a guardian angel up in Heaven to watch over you and your family.

Dear George, Patrick, and Colleen,
I'm deeply saddened to learn about Kathy's passing. I shared a lot of good times with her because of the Dalrymple PTO. My prayers and thoughts are with you all. Godspeed Kathy, you will be missed a lot.
